📌 PEEB ASEAN Parallel Session at AEBF-26 | Preserving Heritage, Reducing Energy Costs: Investing in Passive Cooling Solutions

How should energy efficiency be put into consideration when renovating heritage buildings?

Using the Savannakhet Provincial Museum renovation in Lao PDR as a real case study, this discussion will explore and showcase passive cooling and bioclimatic design solutions that can be adapted across ASEAN. The session is open to architects and building experts in Manila, with special invitation extended to selected participants separate from the general AEBF-26 attendees.

📍 Accelerating Low Carbon Building Retrofit in Indonesia

The ASEAN Centre for Energy (ACE) and Global Green Growth Institute (GGGI), through the Asia Low Carbon Buildings Transition (ALCBT) Project, together with the ASHRAE Indonesia Chapter (AIC), convened a seminar “The Role of Cooling Systems in Low-Carbon Buildings: Retrofit for Resilience” during RHVAC Indonesia Expo 2026 at the Nusantara International Convention Exhibition (NICE) P*K 2.

The seminar brought together 121 participants, including government representatives, building professionals, industry stakeholders, development partners, academia, and technical experts, to explore how Indonesia can advance low-carbon and resilient buildings at scale. The programme addressed two complementary approaches from reducing embodied carbon through improved building material data and carbon calculation, to reducing operational carbon by improving the performance of existing buildings through retrofit.
